Jumbo Paper Clip Bookmarks

These jumbo paper clip bookmarks would be a nice teacher appreciation gift, or attach to mom's favorite book for Mother's Day.

I purchased the paper clips at a local home office store, and embellished them with a variety of punches, cardstock and designer series paper.  To keep the design on the paper clip, I punched two of each of the larger designs and adhered them using sticky strip.  I then embellished the front.

These would be a fun project for your local library, scout troop, or after school program too!
